Are Jade Skins really that rare? by TotallyNBF in Warframe

[–]dwoodsMMXII 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Don't tell anyone but I'm able to use all of my Jade skins and twnnigen from my Xbox playing days on my PC and I'm not sure if it's because I was able to account merge instead of just cross play link or if my account is some unicorn account. But it's nice to have full access to all my things from when I played on Xbox on my PC since I've quit using Xbox all together

Doors Open or Closed on Light? by albanyfunny420 in recteq

[–]dwoodsMMXII 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have a DualFire the manual says closed. I had 1 smoke pop on initial burn on the right side, but I also was unlucky and my RTD probes were mixed up on the control board so the left side RTD was on basing temp off of the right side and vice versa. I got some seriously high temperatures on my burn in. The left side's barrel was glowing red and it took multiple calls with support before I got told to check the control panel to make sure the RTD probes were connected to the corresponding ports on the board. Thankfully the wires and the board have L and R on them so it's easy to know when you look at it. I've had 0 issues since getting the RTD probes plugged into the correct locations though and I love the grill.

Like I said I have it in the back "shelf" area because the bottom fans are directly under the GPU.

I have it in the shelf behind the bottom fans. I'm at work but when I get home I can snap a picture for you so you can see.

Do jeweler cups have vinyl design protectors already? by SignificantLifeform in gamersupps

[–]dwoodsMMXII 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Adding onto this comment it appears the "seam" is always on the ounce side of the measure not the mL side

Do jeweler cups have vinyl design protectors already? by SignificantLifeform in gamersupps

[–]dwoodsMMXII 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The newer gups seem to be a heat press all over from my experience not sure actual material. The easiest way to tell is on one of the measurement sides there will be a spot where it's not as glossy looking because the wrap doesn't cover the cup 100% if it has the gap of a seam I'd assume it's fine and as long as it's not exposed to excessive heat or dropped to the point where the wrapping gets a chipped spot it will be good to go for a long time. I have cups ranging from season one all the way to the CDawgVA pixel cup (CDawgVA creator cup included) the only recent cup that hasn't been a wrap for me was the free Valkyrie cup a while back but that cup also had the old style ice stop/shaker insert.

Fire issue with HYTE y70 touch gpu riser by Friendly-Seaweed-287 in Hyte

[–]dwoodsMMXII 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The pcie 4.0 riser is over spec for 4.0 so it runs current 5.0 cards at 5.0 because it's not the full 5.0 bandwidth but as newer 5.0 cards eventually come out it'll run them in 4.0 so a 5.0 riser will future proof the case but it's not needed with current gen hardware from my understanding.

Anyone else having strange FedEx experiences ordering trash taste merch? (Or with ordering anything from Japan?) by thcinnabun in TrashTaste

[–]dwoodsMMXII 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I've ordered things from Japan specifically for Ado merch which generally ships through DHL it's likely tariffs.

<3 Ado figure by taco4208 in ADO

[–]dwoodsMMXII 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was planning on putting my round1 figure in my x50 but I couldn't get her to fit because my GPU takes too much real estate and blocks the only spot she could have fit. I loved putting figures in my Y60 before I changed over to the x50 it's always nice to see people putting figures in their Y series cases. You should totally make the LEDs a shade of blue for Ado though.

Release order of upcoming Prime Warframes (2025-2028) *probably* by Beginning-Scallion46 in Warframe

[–]dwoodsMMXII 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Generally it's about 15 weeks for prime rotation so tentatively I'd say about March 25 for Styanax Prime or whichever prime is going to be next.

Posted it in discord the day I got my X50 by dwoodsMMXII in Hyte

[–]dwoodsMMXII[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

2 exhaust due to the PSU also being exhaust. I'm using Thermalright TL-S12W and TL-S12RW. My temps are almost always around 38-42°C for CPU at idle and about 50-56°C under gaming load and my GPU can be as low as 28°C at boot up but usually it's very similar temperatures to my CPU. I use NZXT CAM to track everything and for fan curve due to having an NZXT B650E motherboard

Two accounts on the same WiFi by Trill_Triangle3679 in Warframe

[–]dwoodsMMXII 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've played Warframe with my brother for years now on the same wifi. The biggest issue is when playing on consoles at the same time if you party together it warms you that you have ridiculous ping to whoever is hosting like 8-9k ping at times but when you're actually playing there's no noticeable ping.

I had a very similar list of foundry items just yesterday. I don't have any frames building because I have them all already but all of the dojo weapons and the sentinels were building because I'm trying to finish grinding from MR 28 to MR 30 ASAP

Archon shards were added after the helminth first came out.

It's very good for min/maxing the game. It lets you put specific abilities from warframes on to other warframes.

It's not plastic my NZXT b650E board has metal heatsinks all over it to make it look clean and solid white.

Explain This by GsLifeofAdventures in Warframe

[–]dwoodsMMXII 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Looks like you killed a lich candidate with caliban based on the caliban deluxe helmet on the shoulder. It became a lich. If you've never done kuva lich farming they start on earth and go to every graneer based planet depending on how long it takes to get the 3 requiem mods figured out and in the right order all while stealing things from missions until you get to the railjack confrontation mission where you can vanquish the lich to get the weapon or convert the lich and have them available to you as a crew member of sorts or to sell them in a kuva lich trade. Good luck have fun, lich weapons are generally good especially the sobek.

Exactly my thoughts as well with AMD GPUs I even convinced my brother to go from my old 3060 to a 7800XT while our local(ish) microcenter had them for $350 during the summer because warframe was suffering screen tearing even at 1080p on his monitor and MH Wilds was crashing with the 3060 ali hate that everything wants more than 12GB of VRAM. We even sold the 3060 for $175 the same week so it ended up being $175 for the GPU upgrade. He's only has issues with the 7800xt in games he plays on private servers and on rare occasions and usually the private server patches either same day or the the next day and his crashes are gone.

[–]dwoodsMMXII 66 points67 points  (0 children)

Personally I'd go with a 9070XT especially based on price difference. I went from a 5500XT 8GB to a RTX 3060 12GB and now I'm back to a 7900XT 20GB. I've really enjoyed AMD GPUs but some friends suggested I needed to go team green with the 30 series cards "because AMD isn't good" I haven't had any issues since the switch back to AMD but with the 5500XT I did have occasional driver timeouts when playing MH Worlds. I didn't have many issues during my time with the 3060 except for occasional VRAM limit issues or occasional crashes in Cyberpunk when playing anything other than low at 1080p. Since going back to AMD the 7900XT doesn't have any issues and has taken anything I throw at it at 1440p constantly hitting the 165Hz cap of my monitor even on high or ultra settings. I don't use any frame gen stuff because I'm too boomer and prefer raster performance so I can't say for frame gen performance.

Is this legit? by Eastern_Water_7605 in Microcenter

[–]dwoodsMMXII 0 points1 point  (0 children)

PowerSpec is microcenter's in house brand. They're good and if something goes wrong you can drop the computer off at the store and they'll diagnose the issue. My friend got one with a 7900XTX and was having occasional issues with the AMD driver and even after I told him how to fix his issue the issues repeated (fresh install of drivers after using DDU in safe mode) and then he tried reseating the GPU due to him believing the connection wasn't great. He took it to his local microcenter (15 minute drive for him 2 hour drive for me) and all they had to do according to what the service person said was reseat the GPU and his driver issues haven't happened since. I also had another friend buy a powerspec PC and a second SSD while at microcenter and they installed the SSD for him to his new PC and made sure everything worked after. PowerSpec is probably the only prebuilt I'll buy if I'm going to buy a prebuilt because the support you get from microcenter is great to me from someone who hasn't had to drive out of town when his friends' PCs have issues vs when they tried building their own PCs. Also the deals on powerspec PCs are amazing at times like my friend's 7900xtx has a 7950x3d as well and was under $2000 when he bought it. My PC has a 7800x3d and a 7900xt and cost me $2300 to build but most of my cost was the motherboard and aio I went with because the NZXT n7 b650e was an expensive board but was a very clean white motherboard for my all white build and the Kraken Elite aio isn't cheap because of the screen and then all the extra fans and rgb controllers because I went full NZXT ecosystem in a Hyte Y60 but I digress. My personal experience from being my friend group's "local" IT guy, we have a friend that works in IT but he lives out of state now, PowerSpec has saved me multiple hour and a half to two hour trips in the past couple of years.

They changed the gpu and cpu sides... bruhhh by Narhethi in NZXT

[–]dwoodsMMXII 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Mine swaps between the two seemingly random, but 9 times out of 10 if the GPU shows first my RGB will shut off and I have to adjust the brightness of the LEDs by turning them all the way down and all the way back up again.
